    It's actually been in it's grow-out container for the last week and a half. I took one of those 1 gallon jars and set-up similar to yours. There is a ton of springtails in there and I'm also feeding it tiny newborn melanos. I don't know if you can tell but it sort of fat. I can tell it's been eating good. I'm just going to leave him in his grow-out container. I'd rather not change it's living conditions now. It's easy to control temperature and humidity in that jar.

    I think I need to explain...I ended up taking the leave that the cluster was layed on and put it in a small deli cup. I added a little tadpole tea and once the tadpole hatched it just slid into the tea. Once it lost it's tale and was crawling up the sides I just transferred it into the 1 gallon jar. The jar had already been set-up for some time and had a few ficus growing with plenty of springtails running around in it.

    Maybe I'll do a build for one of those and posts the pictures.

    A few minutes ago I was sitting at my desk where the parents Exo Terra is kept and I noticed the lights went off because of the timer. For some reason something caught my eye and I looked inside and I saw what I thought was the male moving about on the leaves right at the door. I took my flashlight to get a better look at him and noticed he looked funny, darker and skinnier. I turned the light back on and flashed a light at him and realized it wasn't the male, or the female. It was an offspring that they had raised inside the enclosure. I grabbed it and put it inside the grow out container with the other one.

    Now I have two offspring...One laboratory and one au naturale!
